Hello! I’m Archie, one of your Vice Captains for 2025!

For the past (almost) 6 years, I have loved every second I have spent at this school, including last minute cramming and the fear and suspense of getting an assessment handed back face down. This is what inspired me to go for a role in the SLT, it drives my devotion and makes me want to do whatever I can to make this school a better place for everybody in it. I believe that every student is capable of great things, and my goal is to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to find that greatness within themselves. My advice for any year of schooling is to stick to a study routine and make sure all of your assignments are handed in on time after submitting at the very least one draft, which is rather hypocritical of me as I am writing this at 9.00pm on the day it’s due!

If you’re interested in me:

• My favourite movies are anything directed by Edgar Wright or Dead Poets Society
• My favourite song is Horses by Jesse Welles (fantastic artist).

Hey, it’s Erin! You’re Vice Captain, an overthinking legend, and someone who will absolutely judge you if you prefer Coke over Pepsi! I’m kidding of course! 

Why Did I want this leadership Role?

Honestly? Because I wanted to be the person I needed when I was younger. Someone who actually listens, cares, and isn’t just a fancy badge and a performative speech. I want to help create initiatives that make school more enjoyable, more supportive, and, let’s be real, a little less school-ish.

Some facts about me you didn’t ask for but I’m going to tell you anyway!

• I’m a super creative person - I love filmmaking, acting, writing, painting, crafting, and even making up weirdly specific recipes.
• When I finish school, I want to travel the world, live somewhere new, and speak another language fluently (or at least well enough to order food without embarrassing myself).
• Tomato sauce is gross in all forms. I will not be taking questions at this time. 

Things I think you should watch instead of doing your homework!

• If you want to cry: We Live in Time (Prepare for emotional damage).
• If you want to laugh: Beavis and Butthead SNL skit (Because sometimes dumb humour is the best humour).
• If you want to change your life: Good Will Hunting?
• If you want to find your new favourite show: Yellowjackets (Plane crash, survival, mystery, new season out now - this show has everything).

News Flash 

A man in Canada built a full-sized, fully functional rollercoaster in his backyard… because why not? His neighbours now live in constant fear, but honestly, that’s the kind of commitment fun we should all strive for.

Joke of the Week

Q: Why did the scarecrow win an award?

A: Because he was outstanding in his field.
 

That’s all for now - see you around school! And remember, Pepsi is superior.
